Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

That’s a load of bunk.
is irrelevant. The kind of people that won’t vote for her because she’s non-white or non-male aren’t going to vote for a Dem Soc anyway. Because they’re voting for a nazi.
don’t forget the fourth on the way. Breeders are weird and Vance is a breeder. this is a bizarre argument that has nothing to do with presidential anything, and is easily turned around to “dude can’t figure out how condoms work”
Vance was a Remfie making propaganda bullshit. This is not the win you think it is.
and yet she’ll eat him alive and she scares him. This is an asinine argument. Be better.
bwhaha. You’re a fucking idiot who hasn’t been paying the fuck attention.
They might not vote for a Dem Soc but might vote for a Democrat.
Some voters might think there is something wrong with a person who doesn't want children especially when the US along with many countries have a low birthrate.
He had to be tough to get into the Marines. Some voters like a person who has served the country.
Models are tall because it makes them more visible. Vance would be more visible than AOC. He will also look more impressive.
AOC would do no better than Kamala Harris; winning in blue states but losing in purple and red states. Democrats need a candidate like Jon Ossoff or Andy Beshear.
is a different issue than not voting for someone because they’re not a white, old, cishet man
even more people think there’s something wrong with the other end. Especially when they demand $150k helicopter trips for golf lessons
lol. No. Stop wanking off to military channel docus
we’re not talking about models. You’re being shallow and vapid and more than just a bit ridiculous. AOC is far from unattractive- she’s tough, intelligent, and strong. Exactly the kind of woman that scares and intimidates Vance. Also, since you’re being like this, she wears her make up better.
Yes she would. The main reasons Kaila lost were getting fucked over by Biden trying to hang on, getting fucked on Israel and getting fucked on “I wouldn’t change anything” - none of which is a problem for AOC
I can only assume you’re not paying attention
There are people who are uneasy about having a woman President especially one who is nonwhite.
Some voters might feel that a woman without children is a bad example for the US at a time when the birthrate is low.
Some people respect those who have served in the military.
AOC is attractive, but Vance's height when standing next to AOC will make him more appealing.
AOC is too far to the left. If she runs for President, she will move towards the middle, but the GOP would attack her past views.
I think you're arguing with a hobbyist troll. I've seen this person around, spouting the absolute most braindead takes I've ever seen like how AOC will lose because she's too short or whatever, and I cannot believe someone able to operate a device to connect to Lemmy is that much of an idiot
